Our approach

The Gibraltar Difference

A boutique builder in Brevard. Start with a plan, change the finishes that matter, build it on your lot or ours. Jim Mayes runs the company. Tim Mayes runs the job. We fish these waters. We raise kids in these zip codes.

Boutique, on purpose

A family builder rooted in Brevard County.

Large builders sell you a community. We sell you a house. Pick a plan, then personalize the finishes. We will build it on your lot or one of ours. If you need keys now, we keep inventory homes that are already standing.

There is no regional design committee. If something is wrong, you are not opening a ticket in another state. You are calling the people who live here.

What ships in the house

Explore Gibraltar home features. Confirm the included finishes and specifications for your selected home with our team.

Impact-rated windows

Ask our team about the impact rating and specifications for your selected home.

Impact-rated exterior doors

The same protection at the entry, not just the glass.

Steel-reinforced garage doors + opener

Impact-rated and steel-reinforced, with a remote opener included.

RV garage on select plans

King Willow and Tradesman. Or a gym, a shop, a batting cage.

3-car garage on select plans

Framed in, not bolted on later.

Full-lite impact French doors

A 6-foot opening that still carries the rating. Review the door options for your chosen plan.

Gutters, front and back

Gutters help direct roof runoff away from the home.

Planned landscaping

Two oak trees, two palms and a layered plant package with black mulch, plus Bahia grass.

Ducted return air

Sealed return ductwork. Designed for air circulation throughout the home.

Ceiling fans with remotes

52" in the owner's suite, 60" in the living room. No pull chains.

Soft-close doors and drawers

Dovetail drawers, plywood boxes. Built for everyday use.

Tray ceilings + crown

Tray ceilings with crown molding in the primary bedroom and the living room.

8-foot kitchen islands

7'8" on the Ava Maria. You can actually work on them.

Wood-look porcelain

Living and wet areas, with carpet in the bedrooms. Looks like wood. Behaves like tile.

Floor-to-ceiling shower tile

A continuous tile finish for the shower walls.

9'4" ceilings

Tall ceilings create an open, spacious feel.

What to expect during your build

Building should not be a black box with a monthly phone call.

Know your deadlines

Upgrades that go in the ground or the slab are chosen before land clearing. Finishes and other upgrades are due by your home's selections deadline. A change after that deadline costs at least $100. Changes to the plans after you approve them need a signed change order and cost $750 per change, plus the cost of the change itself.

Digital stage updates

Photo updates help you follow the progress of your home.

Frame walkthrough

If you contracted before framing is done, ask to walk it before the walls close. This is an opportunity to review details before drywall.

Blue tape, then a written final

At Stage 9 you mark every punch-list item with blue tape and we log it. At Stage 10 you do the final walkthrough with the build team, in writing.

How you can buy

Discuss your budget and available financing options with your lender and our team.

Build on your lot

You already own land. We put a Gibraltar plan on it.

Lot as down payment

Buildable lot equity can go toward the house so you bring less cash to the table.

Trade the lot

Do not want to build on that parcel? We may take it toward inventory or a new build.

Lot purchase assistance

Sometimes we buy the lot and roll it into construction. Minimum down payment still applies. We will tell you if it does not fit.

Investor turnkey

New rentals that are already leased, with a builder warranty. Property management for a year on qualifying deals. Details depend on the house.

Finished inventory

If your timing is a priority, ask about homes already under construction or ready for move-in.

Explore the details in person

The difference is in the drawers, the return air, and who shows up when something breaks.
